All passengers will be allowed one small ‘personal’ bag but must pay €/£8 for 10kg ‘cabin’ bags on booking or unless they take priority boarding, where you can take two free bags.

The rules affect flights after November 1 and those booked after September 1.

People who booked before September 1 can add priority boarding for €/£8 or cancel for a full refund.
